Large online platforms have largely given up on the news business. Meta finally removed its dedicated tools for news publishers. Google is experimenting with removing the news tab from search results. AI chatbots are eating the last remaining ways that publishers can drive traffic to their sites. And Elon Musk, the owner of X, the site formerly known as Twitter, spends most of his days railing against the mainstream media. All of this has led to some pretty serious soul-searching among America’s journalists. Is the future…

German bicycle builder Rotwild has launched its very first electric gravel bike, and it looks like it should prove absolutely worth the wait (for anyone who was waiting). The all-new R.R275 X blends race frame DNA with an electric drive that's cleanly integrated into the carbon frame from push-button activator, through flush-mounted display, down tube-enclosed battery, and into compact mid-motor. Throw on some five-spoke carbon monocoque wheels, 1,000 lumens of inbuilt lighting, and an eye-popping blend of red and black,…

And even among eVTOL developers who bullishly talked up their industry's prospects at the Paris show, some predicted that rivals will run dry of funding before they bring prototypes to market.Just a dot on the horizon at first, the bug-like and surprisingly quiet electrically-powered craft buzzes over Paris and its traffic snarls, treating its doubtless awestruck passenger to privileged vistas of the Eiffel Tower and the city's signature zinc-grey rooftops before landing…

Gretchen Parlato’s previous album, 2021’s Flor, saw her widely acclaimed as the outstanding jazz voice of the times. After several years when her career was put on hold for motherhood, Flor was a remarkable comeback, an alluring mix of Brazilian samba and chamber cello, with Parlato’s featherlight vocals skipping between Bach and Bowie’s posthumous No Plan. Lean In is less musically adventurous but equally winning, a partnership with the well-travelled Benin guitarist Lionel Loueke, best known for his work with Herbie…

Powerful cloud data platforms like Snowflake and Databricks change how we think about normal forms and data warehousingPhoto by David Di Veroli on UnsplashWhen minimizing cloud data pipeline costs, the first thing that comes to mind is finding the cheapest ETL solution. For example, is Databricks cheaper than Snowflake? Should I use the cloud or run Spark locally on an in-house cluster?A better way to consider cost minimization is by using the principles of Lean.
